Yes, if there was an issue with the drone. But, if it was. pilot error, then you would need to pay. Fortunately, for me it was deemed a warranty

PS: Back to my original question - should you submit a service repair request or a DJI Express Care request, my advice is to go down the service repair request route first. Notwithstanding, DJI's push for you to use DJI Care Refresh, the repair may not be very expensive (just over $100 in my...

Final result = free repair. They identified that the GPS Board module malfunctioned. Thanks everyone for your help and tips for the future!

Yeah, it was drifting. Couldn't get it to hold still to get the photo I wanted. That was when I tried to bring it back home. But, it got faster and faster as it came towards me and then didn't seem to respond when I tried to get it to stop. Flew straight past and into a tree behind me. Had never...

I think it did give the message that the homeport had been updated, but maybe not. Can't remember now, but I usually make sure it has. however, I was only flying a few feet away to take a photo so may not have worried about it.

I took a look at the instructions, without much luck. I use an RC Pro as my controller. On that device the folders are empty under DJI Fly. When I power up the drone, I can see the flight logs. The option to upload them to the cloud fails. In the Black Box Data is a list of all the files, both...

You could be right about interference. GPS was not working and there was a strange message about altitude that I didn't pay too much attention to as I was only 15-20 ft off the ground trying to get some photos. This was the location: St Georges Lake · St Georges Lake Rd, Creswick VIC 3363...

G’day My Mavic 3 started to behave strange today. It would not hover in one place and it would keep drifting at the same altitude without me touching the controllers. So, I tried to bring it home. However, it took off with increasing speed and fly over my head and into a tree. DJI Support say...
